Jungheinrich Diesel and LPG counterbalanced trucks with hydrostatic drive give a productivity particularly in shuttle operations (e.g. trailer and loading bay operations). The power of this drive technology is demonstrated to full advantage: high acceleration, rapid direction changes and precise driving characteristics. With 5 operating programmes, the performance characteristics can be adapted to the requirements of numerous varied applications.
State-of-the-art engines from the automotive industry give precise operation and optimum productivity combined with low fuel consumption minimised by their electronic control systems. All engines have low exhaust emissions and comply with at least the current EU regulations. A regulated 3-way catalyser for LPG as well as soot filter systems for Diesel trucks are available as options.
The workplace is optimally laid out with the operator in mind. It provides safety, protects the operator’s health and ensures relaxed and concentrated operation – the best basis for high productivity throughout the shift.

Comfort and productivity promoting workplace
Ergonomic operator workplace
Comfortable cab helping to maximise productivity with class leading ergonomics:
Comfortable cab helping to maximise productivity with class leading ergonomics:
- Easy and safe access due to a large step easily visible from above.
- Floating Cab: vibration isolation with damped power train mountings and operator work place module.
- Height and rake adjustable, slim steering column with memory function.
- Easy entry to the cab: the steering column tilts forward by means of a simple pull on the memory function lever.
- Excellent all-round visibility due to special roof and scuttle design.
- SOLO-PILOT, Comfort Display and operating console are integrated into the right hand armrest and are particularly easy to operate and read. The armrest is both vertically and horizontally adjustable.
- Comfortable working environment in any weather due to comfort cabs in various designs (optional).
Assistance systems
The new Hydrostatic already offers an extensive safety package as standard:
The new Hydrostatic already offers an extensive safety package as standard:
- Deactivation of hydraulic functions if seat is unoccupied.
- No uncontrolled roll-back on ramps or inclines due to the automatic parking brake, even with the engine switched off.
- Excellent stability due to extremely low centre of gravity and high pivot steer axle.
- Access Control: The access control system allows operation of the forklift only if “seat occupied” and “safety belt locked” recognition are activated in a defined sequence.
- Drive Control: Automatic travel speed reduction when cornering (similar to Jungheinrich Curve Control). Additional travel speed reduction occurs with lift heights in excess of approx. 1500 mm.
- Lift Control (includes “Drive Control”): Automatic mast tilt speed reduction occurs with lift heights in excess of approx. 1500 mm. Tilt angle is displayed via an individual display unit.
Handling efficiency and drive characteristics
Key advantages of hydrostatic drive:
Key advantages of hydrostatic drive:
- Electronic control for precise adjustment of drive and hydraulic functions.
- Optimum handling performance particularly in shuttle operations.
- Stepless power transmission and high starting torques.
- 5 electronically selectable operating programmes ensure optimum performance parameters for every application.
- Automatic engine speed increase during lifting and lowering.
- Very precise control of travel speed.
- Optional double pedal operation.
- Low maintenance costs due to direct drive without wearing parts, such as clutch, differential and gears.
Intelligent electronics
- Splash-proof electronic controllers (IP 64) connected to the CAN-Bus system for drive and hydraulic functions.
- 74 Ah 12 V battery/90 A 3-phase AC generator (140 A optional).
- Electronically controlled engines.
- TFG with maintenance-free electronic ignition system.
- Sensitive adjustment of hydraulic functions via electromagnetic valves.
Tyres
Superelastic tyres as standard; choices of nonmarking SE and pneumatic tyres also available.

Brakes
The hydrostatic drive allows completely wearfree braking:
The hydrostatic drive allows completely wearfree braking:
- Frequent brake pedal operation is no longer necessary.
- Parking brake: sprung-loaded laminated oil immersed parking brake as a maintenance-free, enclosed system.
- Safety on ramps: The parking brake is activated automatically when the truck stands still or the engine is switched off.
Hydraulics
The high performance filter system ensures clean hydraulic oil and a long service life of all components.
The high performance filter system ensures clean hydraulic oil and a long service life of all components.
- Combined suction and return flow filter system for optimum cold running.
- Hydraulic tank integrated in chassis.
- Ventilation of hydraulic tank via the filter.
- Pressure relief valves protect against excess pressure and overloading.
Mast
All mast components are designed for optimum visibility, maximum stability and long service life:
All mast components are designed for optimum visibility, maximum stability and long service life:
- Slender mast profiles with lift cylinders behind for maximum visibility.
- Damping on mast and tilt cylinders for increased handling safety.
